VR parsing so you can ask different varying phrases (Like the built in VR in HS). (ie : Weather for the next |1|2|3|4|5 days) - I need this for one of my custom scripts.

I have added this feature in version 3.0.0.2 available from the Beta Testing thread
so on your example the syntax would be:

Code:

Weather for the next <one|two|three|four|five> days

when the phrase is recognized the plugin sets the global variable kinectvar0 to the number spoken, so that you can get it from a script using hs.GetVar("kinectvar0").
You can add up to 10 multiple choices for the same phrase and get results from the global variables kinectvar0, kinectvar1, ...., kinectvar9

Hi Spud, is there a possible to assign a device that show on/off for listening status. If the Attention Phrase is accepted the device status should change to on or similar.

why would be the use for such a device?
right now, the way it works is that you have to say the attention phrase before each command: "Computer, turn the lights on", "Computer, stop the music", etc..., so the Kinect is kind of always listening.

Okey I thought that "Computer" would activate the listen mode for example next 10 seconds or so. In that case it have been great to have an lamp or hstouch notice to know that hs is waiting for command.

But now I know that I need to say "Computer" before every command whitout any delay.
Thanks for your great work.

I uses homeseer with XBMC and it would be nice for the Kinect to listen for multiple commands for a desired amount of time.

Example:
Like this:
Computer Up - Up - Right - Select
Instead of this:
Computer Up - Computer Up - Computer Right - Computer Select

Yes that's something I'm going to add, I was thinking of allowing users to define and load sub grammars. So for example you would say, "Computer enter XBMC mode", then you would be able to say specific XBMC commands like "Up", "Select", etc without having to say "computer" each time, then after a delay or a special command this sub grammar would be unloaded, and you would return to the regular mode.
